Commercial Cargo Distribution Methodology
Side Wall Rails
Stand mattresses, box springs, and dining table surfaces on edge along side walls ($Z = 0$). Secure with ratchet straps to prevent horizontal tipping.
Bulkhead Foundation
Stand sofas vertically on end against the cab wall ($X = 0$). Place solid timber dressers flat on the deck floor to establish a stable low center of gravity.
Vertical Box Tiers
Construct dense, ceiling-height vertical columns of corrugated boxes. Stack large heavy boxes on the floor progressing to medium and lightweight small boxes on top.
Mom's Attic
Distribute wardrobe hanging boxes, television cartons, and fragile china into the elevated cab shelf ($Y > 50″$). Keep heavy steel and stone out of the attic.

Vehicle specifications reflect standard US rental fleets (U-Haul, Budget, Penske). When between truck sizes, rental providers always recommend reserving the larger vehicle.
